More quotes by Lewis Carroll
You shouldn't make jokes if it makes you so unhappy.
Lewis Carroll
You're thinking about something, my dear, and that makes you forget to talk.
Lewis Carroll
While the laughter of joy is in full harmony with our deeper life, the laughter of amusement should be kept apart from it. The danger is too great of thus learning to look at solemn things in a spirit of mockery, and to seek in them opportunities for exercising wit.
Lewis Carroll
have i gone mad? im afraid so, but let me tell you something, the best people usualy are.
Lewis Carroll
One thing was certain, that the white kitten had had nothing to do with it-- it was the black kitten's fault entirely.

Lewis Carroll
It is a very inconvenient habit of kittens (Alice had once made the remark) that, whatever you say to them, they always purr: If they would only purr for 'yes,' and mew for 'no, or any rule of that sort, she had said, so that one could keep up a conversation! But how can you talk with a person if they always say the same thing?
Lewis Carroll
'But I don't want to go among mad people,' said Alice. 'Oh, you can't help that,' said the cat. 'We're all mad here.'
Lewis Carroll
Without a plan, it doesn't matter which way you're going.
Lewis Carroll
It’s a miserable story!” said Bruno. “It begins miserably, and it ends miserablier. I think I shall cry. Sylvie, please lend me your handkerchief.” “I haven’t got it with me,” Sylvie whispered. “Then I won’t cry,” said Bruno manfully.
Lewis Carroll
she was a little startled by seeing the Cheshire Cat sitting on a bough of a tree a few yards off. The Cat only grinned when it saw Alice.
Lewis Carroll
Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end then stop.
Lewis Carroll
But, I nearly forgot, you must close your eyes otherwise you won't see anything.
Lewis Carroll
I said it in Hebrew—I said it in Dutch— I said it in German and Greek But I wholly forgot (and it vexes me much) That English is what you speak!
Lewis Carroll
Read the directions and directly you will be directed in the right direction.
